Ace

I am here digging a tunnel to nowhere
a spade wearing an heart on its sleeve
a diamond of gems not belong to a club

I am here a star in the sky hard to find
sharing a life with a flailing light 
and many bulbs flowering come spring

I am here a win win of nothing to lose
if only a blank stare to master
a hand of poker and a game of yonder
